Prinze, Jr. Sued Over Car Crash

Actor Freddie Prinze, Jr. is facing legal action from a man who alleges he suffered severe neck injuries in a 2009 car crash.

According to legal documents obtained by TMZ.com, Prinze, Jr. was driving a car registered to his wife, Sarah Michelle Gellar, when he "suddenly and without warning" rear-ended a car that was stopped at a red light.

The driver claims he suffered severe neck injuries that have kept him from working, and he has been advised by doctors to undergo surgery. Reports suggest the claimant is seeking a judgment in the six-figure range. (JMA/WNWCZM/KL)
